Serj Tankian is the main vocalist from the band System of a Down and this is his solo project.  Musically this album is a stunning 4 star album, however for being his solo project it sounds too similar to his band and for that I would give it 3 stars.  Even some of the guitar riffs are an exact replica of a few System of the Down’s riffs.  Solo albums should be different than the artist’s band, and should stand out from the band, but Tankian must feel otherwise.  Released October 22, 2007, Serj truly put his all into this album, playing everything from guitars to bass, piano, synthesizers, drums, bells and of course the vocals.  Over all if you are a fan of System of the Down’s stuff, you’ll be a fan of Tankian’s solo album, but don’t be too critical when listening like myself, just take the music and lyrics in, because it truly is a great album.
